After the hullabaloo in Havertown, no one knew what to expect when Tredyffrin Public Library hosted its first-ever Drag Queen Storytime.
Protesters?
Counter-protesters?
An overflow crowd?
An angry mob?
After it received pushback emails and calls, the library wasn’t taking any chances that late June morning.
For years, downtown Wayne’s movie theater has been slugging it out with the big boys: the Regals, the AMCs, the Movie Taverns, and, to a lesser degree, the Bryn Mawr Film Institute.
Slugging it out and, er, losing.
But the tide may turn yet.
Because dear old Anthony Wayne – built in 1928 and sagging with age – is making his last stand.
The theater’s operator, Reel Cinemas, just launched a “Save the Anthony Wayne” campaign and the stakes couldn’t be higher: Raise $2 million to modernize, compete and fill the seats.
Or raise the white flag and go dark for good.
Don’t think it can’t happen.
The football hazing/sodomy scandal that rocked Conestoga last year won’t be going to trial after all.
The three accused ex-players today admitted in court only to harassing their freshman teammate.
In exchange for that admission, the really nasty charges – assault, making terrorist threats, conspiracy, unlawful restraint, possession of an instrument of crime – were all dropped. (Their trial on those charges was to have begun this morning.)
And remember the DA’s vile account of what went down in the locker room in October 2015?
Well, that’s been dropped, too. Or at least radically revised.
